Here's two machines I just did for some people. Nothing super duper spectacular, but for some reason I really like the red one. Even though it's just a few LEDs and skins... I really like it.
The El Wire/Blue mod isn't done. I have to install a blue mirror skin.
I changed the camera settings to get rid of the glare, really had to dim the pics...they are very bright.
Also, as you can see I took this pic before I cleaned the one guys dust out of his Xbox case top grooved areas....man, I hate those grooves...they trap everything.

nice mG.. nice..
Your going to love me soon.. Im writing a thumbnail gallery specifically for HQ so members can upload all types of media to the site.
for example.. You could have a category called casemodding.. And have as many pics as you want in there.. All members will get to upload their pics to show off.. Its a good way to keep everything xbox in the one spot..
Im writing it this week (actually right now).. but she wont be done for a little while.. Quite a bit involved but it will be worth it.. You will be able to give you pic a title, some brief comments etc etc..
i love seeing what your producing these days.
l8r and keep up the great work dude..

Hey MG, youve been doing allot of EL wire stuff lately so I guess you would be the one to ask.
I know EL wire comes in different "Shades" where a site can say "green" or "blue" and that wouldnt give it any justice, and we all know pictures can be deceiving. I was wondering if you could reccomend a shop for me.
Im looking for a "green" EL wire, along the lines of a vibrant green, rather than a faint green Ive seen at times. It will match the bright green LEDs I am putting into my friend's box. Ill also be buying some red, but I will get that from the same place I get the green.
Thanks man!
And ya, that red one looks EVIL !!! _________________ -Scourge "Rx = +/_\"

I buy all of my El Wire from xpsmods.com since I don't buy in bulk. I actually only do a handful of El Wire jobs per month, but I haven't had any problems with their product. I just wouldn't order from their site, I would order from Ebay. You get better or, should I say, quicker shipping that way.
They used to be pretty disorganized. I ordered red El tape from them for an underglow job I had to do and got someone elses package in the mail...to this day never ever got my red el tape.
But, they are one of the cheaper games in town.
If you dont' mind soldering your own EL wire to the inverter wire and such you can find many different colors from other places. Just google search El Wire..you'll be flabbergasted at the amount of ppl selling it.
A lot of it is battery operated novelty stuff...you'll have to sift through a lot of that. _________________ Good Deals: Death@Hand, funkydopenloven, StaticMind, Slamscaper, PorscheXboxter

Ive actually considered it a few times for my own Xbox. Ive allready got the can of Bondo, I just need to think of what I want to do with it.
The main problem I think thinking of is I would like to keep the holes on the side intact, without it looking like crap. I may not even do it, but it is a great Idea nonetheless. _________________ -Scourge "Rx = +/_\"
